...factories. This right of representation is no very radical plat-form; it is not only-justified but inevitable. An employer is in no way compelled to accept the advice offered, provided he has an open shop. Refusing this right at this time of strained relations is showing a great lack of foresight...
Such a disgraceful lack of interest in class affairs must surely arouse the indignation of all undergraduates. Whether the fault lies in the method of nomination by outgoing class officers and supplementary nominations by petition, or inherently in Harvard students, let it be remedied immediately. If nominations in a general class convention would be better, let the change be made; if a system of having candidates named and seconded in primaries, thinned out by direct voting on the convention ballot, and four or five successful names placed on the final, ballot, would prevent such a shameful showing as on Tuesday...

He says that a lack of common sense was shown in suggesting that our obligation to the American soldier ceased at the signing of the peace ternls. If we pay a man a fair salary while he works for us, give him a bonus when he leaves, and then hunt up a job for him, we certainly are treating him squarely...
